I seem to be in the company of the famous.
The first season of SpikeTV's The Ultimate Fighter reality show starred my martial arts instructor, Forrest Griffin. He eventually won the grand prize (six-figure fighting contract) and became the poster-child of Mixed Martial Arts.
This is the third season of The Ultimate Fighter, and I just discovered that my other instructor Rory Singer (Forrest's friend) is on the show. Here's hoping you take it, champ.
In other news, a martial-arts buddy of mine (and the son of one of my colleagues here on campus) is the stunt double for Matthew McConaughey in his upcoming move We Are . . . Marshall.
Who's next for fame and fortune?

Well, as you know, we come from a long line of "no fame and no fortune" people. However, if you are looking for balanced and well rounded people then we qualify. Wouldn't mind having just one fame-and-fortune person in the family though!
stunt double--cool! Very cool. How on earth does one become a stunt double? Do you audition for it?
